Financial Support

Graduate Admissions

Students admitted to the MFA program at VCUarts Qatar are encouraged to apply for funding support from their respective government scholarship programs or from their employers.

Keep the MFA program apprised of your efforts as you seek funding for your MFA studies.

Funding support from VCUarts Qatar may also be available, at the discretion of the graduate faculty and based on availability of funds, and with evidence that other avenues for funding support have been exhausted.

MADLSA generally provides graduate scholarship funding to those who are employed by a Qatar government agency or who are not employed. (Those employed by other employers should seek assistance from their respective employers.)

Should your application for graduate scholarship funding be denied by MADLSA or by your employer, please provide a copy of the denial notice to the MFA director so you may be considered for funding by VCUarts Qatar.

Should your requests for such funding be denied or should graduate funding support programs not be available, then please provide documentation to support such, in which case you may be considered for funding by VCUarts Qatar.
